NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TEMECULA DOES
RESOLVE, DETERMINE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
Section I. Findings. That the Temecula City Council hereby makes the following
findings:
A. Pursuant to Government Code Section 65360, a newly incorporated city shall adopt
a general plan within thirty (30) months following incorporation. During that 30-month period
of time, the city is not subject to the requirement that a general plan be adopted or the
92-51 -1-
requirements of state law that its decisions be consistent with the general plan, if all of the
following requirements are met:
1. The city is proceeding in a timely fashion with the preparation of the general
plan.
2. The planning agency finds, in approving projects and taking other actions,
including the issuance of building permits, each of the following:
a. There is a reasonable probability that the land use or action proposed
will be consistent with the general plan proposal being considered or studied or
which will be studied within a reasonable time.
b. There is little or no probability of substantial detriment to or
interference with the future adopted general plan if the proposed use or action is
ultimately inconsistent with the plan.
c. The proposed use or action complied with all other applicable
requirements of state law and local ordinances.
B. The Riverside County General Plan, as amended by the Southwest Area Community
Plan, (hereinafter ~SWAP") was adopted prior to the incorporation of Temecula as the General
Plan for the southwest portion of Riverside County, including the area now within the boundaries
of the City. At this time, the City has adopted SWAP as its General Plan guidelines while the
City is proceeding in a timely fashion with the preparation of its General Plan.
C. The proposed Tract Map is consistent with the SWAP and meets the requirements
set forth in Section 65360 of the Government Code, to wit:
The city is proceeding in a timely fashion with a preparation of the general
2. The Planning Commission rinds, in approving projects and taldng other
actions, including the issuance of building permits, pursuant to this rifle, each of the
following:
a. There is reasonable probability that Tract Map No. 23209 proposed
will be consistent with the general plan proposal being considered or studied or
which will be studied within a reasonable time, because the project is consistent
with Ordinance Nos. 348, 460, and SWAP which has been adopted as a guideline.
b. There is little or no probability of substantial detriment to or
interference with the future adopted general plan if the proposed use or action is
Re,os 92-51 -2-
ultimately inconsistent with the plan because the project is consistent with existing
and approved projects to the south and west.
c. The proposed use or action complies with all other applicable
requirements of state law and local ordinances.
D. Pursuant to Section 7.1 of County Ordinance No. 460, no subdivision may be
approved unless the following findings are made:
1. That the proposed land division is consistent with applicable general and
specific plans.
2. That the design or improvement of the proposed land division is consistent
with applicable general and specific plans.
3. That the site of the proposed land division is physically suitable for the type
of development.
4. That the site of the proposed land division is physically suitable for the
proposed density of the development.
5. That the design of the proposed land division or proposed improvements are
not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably
injure fish or wildlife or their habitat.
6. That the design of the proposed land division or the type of improvements
are not likely to cause serious public health problems.
7. That the design of the proposed land division or the type of improvements
will not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through, or use
of, property within the proposed land division. A land division may be approved if it is
found that alternate easements for access or for use will be provided and that they will be
substantially equivalent to ones previously acquired by the public. This subsection shall
apply only to easements of record or to easements established by judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction.
8. The City Council in approving the proposed Tentative Tract Map, makes
the following findings, to wit:
a. The proposed Tract Map will not have significant negative impact
on the environment, as determined in the Initial Environmental Assessment
prepared for Tentative Tract Map No. 23209. A Negative Declaration is
recommended to be reaffu'med.
Re,os 92-51 -3-
b. There is a reasonable probability that this proposal will be consistent
with the General Plan being prepared at this time. The map is consistent with
applicable subdivision and land use ordinances, and conforms with the City's
Southwest Area Plan (SWAP) guidelines affecting the subject property.
c. There is not a likely probability of substantial detriment to, or
interference with, the future adopted General Plan, if the proposed use is ultimately
inconsistent with the plan. The project is consistent with surrounding development,
and does not logically have the potential to generate significant adverse
environmental impacts.
d. The proposed use or action complies with City and State planning
and zoning laws. Reference local Ordinances No. 348, 460, California
Governmental Code Sections 65000-66009 (Planning Zoning Law), and
Government Code Title 7, Division 2.
e. The site is suitable to accommodate the proposed land use in terms
of the size and shape of parcel configurations, access, and density. The project has
access to public rights-of-way, and is designed with sufficient pad areas allowing
appropriate building pad sites.
f. The project as designed and conditioned will not adversely affect the
built or natural environment as determined in the initial study prepared for this
project. Reference the attached Initial Environmental Study and Conditions of
Approval for Tentative Tract Map No. 23209.
g. The design of the subdivision, the type of improvements and the
resulting street layout are such that they are not in conflict with easements for
access through or use of the property within the proposed project as conditioned.
h. The site for the proposed use is provided legal access via La Serena
and Butterfield Stage Road public rights-of-way. Development of these roads shall
comply with City Public Works Conditions of Approval contained herein.
i. The proposed project will not inhibit or restrict future ability to use
active or passive solar energy systems. Adequate lot areas and exposures are
provided for these alternatives.
j. The proposed use will not have a substantial adverse affect on
abutting properties or the permitted use thereof. The proposed map provides for
residential development similar in character and densities evident on vicinity
properties. Land use incongruities and associated adverse affects arising from
Resos 92-51 -4-
implementation of this proposal are unlikely.
Section IL F, nvironmental Compliance. The Initial Study prepared for this project
indicates that although the proposed project could have a significant impact on the environment,
there will not be a significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described in the
Conditions of Approval have been added to the project and Environmental Assessment No. 33254
was previously considered by the County of Riverside. Therefore, the Negative Declaration is
re-affu-med.
Section Ill, Conditions. The City of Temecula City Council hereby approves
Tentative Tract Map No. 23209 for the subdivision of 80 acres into 220 residential lots and a 2.9
acre park site in the R-T zone located at the easterly terminus of La Serena Way and known as
